The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou

The garish, exotic, retro styling is Anderson at his visual best. ” Empire

Part of our FOUR PILLARS SUMMER FESTIVAL!

Renowned oceanographer Steve Zissou (Bill Murray) has sworn vengeance upon the rare shark that devoured a member of his crew.
In addition to his regular team, he is joined on his boat by Ned (Owen Wilson), a man who believes Zissou to be his father, and Jane (Cate Blanchett), a journalist pregnant by a married man.

They travel the sea, all too often running into pirates and, perhaps more traumatically, various figures from Zissou’s past, including his estranged wife, Eleanor (Anjelica Huston).

Live music before each film will be provided by Sean Conran & Tamara Issa of Obscura Hail.
The perfect musical accompaniment to a Wes Anderson double bill!
